CHAPTER 8
When the music stopped I heard Ron yell at distance at someone I couldn't figure out as the crowd disrupted my vision so I approached the two making my way through the crowd and to my surprise found Luciano standing infront of Ron soon worry took over me, I could see an unknown look on his face and his eyes seemed to say something which I couldn't quite decipher.
Lola stood beside me with an expression much the same as mine, one of worry and confusion "What's going on boys?" I asked Ron while my eyes stood fixated on Luciano until Ron spoke up " I saw our friend Luciano with his brother Enzo having a party of their own in my basement but before I add on to the details of their little get together" Ron now said loudly looking over at the crowd who stood still with anticipation ,
"I need you guys to get back doing whatsoever you were upto" then he held my hands taking us God knows where while Lola and Luciano followed "What is happening Ron can't you just cut the chase and tell us already!" I whisper yelled "Oh I will just a bit longer " Ron said taking us towards his room and soon we all stood up circling each other as we all stood waiting for Ron to speak up.
I could see Ron having a conversation within himself as the way he kept pacing back and forth in the room when Luciano said "Can you just stop it already and finish what you started" he looked obviously annoyed waiting for too long "I see you're growing impatient without not being able to go on your killing spree" Ron shouted all of a sudden which is something I've never ever seen him do as he never loose his cool so easily which made both Lola and I shudder with the sudden outburst and before I could finally grasp what Ron just said he spoke again "You don't understand how difficult it is for me to be the one to disclose it to her. She's my best friend!" rushing towards Luciano he punched him hard on his face.
Lola and I rushed towards them to separate the two before Ron does something too bad "Are you out of your mind. Aren't you civil enough to talk out whatever sudden difference you have instead of throwing hands!" I yelled at Ron with anger, I stood on my toes to see Luciano's face and touched his cheeks when blood oozed out from the corner of his lips which he quickly wiped it clean with his thumb.
"I'm okay relax" he whispered to me with the side of his lips curving a bit "Ron speak very clearly and get fucking straight to the point this suspense is giving me enough headache" I told him off and he took a deep breathe "I went to the basement in search of my stash of condoms since the ones in my bedroom ran out but to my surprise I saw the two brother's towering two injured men on their knees as they begged for mercy to have their lives saved. The two cried telling they have a family waiting back at home yet still I cannot comprehend the situation so I looked around and saw two men shot dead at the back of a car".
Loud gasps filled the room with Lola and I not being able to register what we heard, I looked at Luciano waiting for him to deny his allegations but he stood still "How can we forget that he's still the boy that almost killed a studentin his previous school for God knows what and us being soo foolish we befriended him!"Ron said breaking the silence "Ron let him give an explanation" I said which came out as a whisper,
"What kind of sick explanation do you need for killing?!And even if there is some sort of shit explanation you cannot justify murder Al just because you refuse to see the bad in him" he said and I knew he was right I fucking knew that but I just cannot come up with terms to it "Why don't you say something huh? You just won't go around killing people right there has to be some meaning to it" I sobbed speaking "Tell us! Tell me! Tell me so I can trust you please!" hitting him hard on his chest as I spoke and eventually crashed into his arms as he hold onto me.
Caressing my cheeks his eyes piercing in mine "Al the people in my world will always have blood in their hands either it'll be the blood of your loved ones or the blood of your enemies and I refuse to have the blood of my loved ones on me" he said and then took a step back " I will not make any false or futile promises to you, all I'd say is that I'll try my best" with that saying he kissed my forehead and looked straight into my eyes with desperation in it then he stormed out of the room leaving me helpless and broken with nothing but a thread of hope.
I could see pity and worry flashing over their faces "Al baby please I cannot see you like this get up and drink some water " Lola said "It happened for the best Al you know" Ron said making me loose my mind " What is that best thing you're talking about?" I said " You escaped a bloody murderer Alessia this is the best thing that happened!" He replied " Ron what if it was self defence, what if he was forced into it, what if he had no other option! How could you just come up with an conclusion and call him a murderer" my body flaring with anger,
"Well maybe because he is one!" He went out of the room slamming the door as Lola excused herself with "I'll try putting some sense into him" and followed him out.
I sat on the edge of the bed with my head filled with questions,theories but mostly hurt that how he just walked out refusing to give me an explanation as if I wasn't worthy of one wiping my tears away my eyes caught a shiny thing on the floor so I picked it up bending down realizing it was the same chain that Luciano wears almost everyday, it must have dropped down when Ron grabbed his collar being not so sure what to do I kept it inside my pocket and left for home.
